Apparently there is an investigation into California hospitals overcharging
patients by getting them to pay bills beyond what the insurance company has
paid. If you check out
https://www.lawyersandsettlements.com/case/hospitals_overcharging there is
more information on this and what can be done about it. They also provide a
free case evaluation for those who may have been affected by this. I hope
this might be of some help.
